We examine the conditions under which the solution of the radial stationary Schr\"odinger equation for the sextic anharmonic oscillator can be expanded in terms of Hermite functions. We find that this is possible for an infinite hierarchy…
The eigenstates of a real or complex cubic anharmonic oscillator are investigated using original and alternative methods. The procedure consists of determining global solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation that comply with the pertinent…
We prove locally uniform spacing for the zeros of orthogonal polynomials on the real line under weak conditions (Jacobi parameters approach the free ones and are of bounded variation). We prove that for ergodic discrete Schrodinger…
We consider discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with strictly ergodic, aperiodic potentials taking finitely many values. The well-known tendency of these operators to have purely singular continuous spectrum of zero Lebesgue…

This note points out some bounds for the number of negative eigenvalues of Schroedinger operators with Hardy-type potentials, which follow from a simple coordinate transformation, and could prove useful in a spectral analysis of certain…
In this contribution we consider sequences of monic polynomials orthogonal with respect to the standard Freud-like inner product involving a quartic potential $\left\langle…
The paper addresses a conjecture of Shapiro and Tater on the similarity between two sets of points in the complex plane; on one side is the values of $t\in \mathbb{C}$ for which the spectrum of the quartic anharmonic oscillator in the…
We prove the theorem on the completeness of the root functions of the Schroedinger operator $L=-d^2/dx^2+p(x)$ on the semi-axis $\mathbb R_+$ with a complex--valued potential $p(x)$. It is assumed that the potential $p = q \pm ir$ is such…

This paper addresses the problem of computing the eigenvalues lying in the gaps of the essential spectrum of a periodic Schrodinger operator perturbed by a fast decreasing potential. We use a recently developed technique, the so called…
The one-dimensional Schroedinger's equation is analysed with regard to the existence of exact solutions for decatic polynomial potentials. Under certain conditions on the potential's parameters, we show that the decatic polynomial potential…
For integers $m\geq 3$, we study the non-self-adjoint eigenvalue problems $-u^{\prime\prime}(x)+(x^m+P(x))u(x)=E u(x)$, $0\leq x<+\infty$, with the boundary conditions $u(+\infty)=0$ and $\alpha u(0)+\beta u^{\prime}(0)=0$ for some $\alpha,…
The work of Adler provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the Wronskian of a given sequence of eigenfunctions of Schr\"odinger's equation to have constant sign in its domain of definition. We extend this result by giving explicit…
We investigate the zeros of two one-parameter families of harmonic functions and describe how the number of zeros depends on the parameter. Our functions have the property that all zeros lie on certain rays in the complex plane and thus we…
We study positivity, localization of binding and essential self-adjointness properties of a class of Schroedinger operators with many anisotropic inverse square singularities, including the case of multiple dipole potentials.
We consider the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian H= -\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+P(x^2)-(ix)^{2n+1} on the real line, where P(x) is a polynomial of degree at most n \geq 1 with all nonnegative real coefficients (possibly P\equiv 0). It is proved that the…
For Schrodinger operators with suitable 1D potentials, focussing particularly on those that go to infinity at infinity, a characteristic function is constructed, via shooting functions. It is proved to be entire and its zeroes to be the…
A number of results on radial positive definite functions on ${\mathbb R^n}$ related to Schoenberg's integral representation theorem are obtained. They are applied to the study of spectral properties of self-adjoint realizations of two- and…
